B1605 Roon UI still slow and unresponsive

Hi,

I noticed it a couple of releases back but I thought it is worthwhile to mention now as the latest release notes did state a focus on bringing back the snappiness of the UI. My Roon endpoints still suffer from being slow and on occasion unresponsive. Sometimes I search for music and the search does not provide any results. I need to cancel and reinitiate the search for it to work. Skipping tracks or starting playback can take sometimes 10 or more seconds sometimes it is very quick.

I was not able to find a pattern to these problems but I know they started a couple of weeks ago but were not a problem before.

Anybody else with these performance problems in the latest releases?

This has been an issue for the 6 years I’ve used Roon. It’s a case of it works sometimes and not other times.

Local, streaming or both?

Although the search issue is a hit ‘n’ miss affair, with this and the other issue I would suggest rebooting your network equipment from the router working outward to access points.

Another thing is that Roon occasionally after an update likes one or two reboots.

I found the EA B1605 was really good and moving to B1606 I am impressed with the responsiveness from what I was like this time last year.

Roon isn’t issue free but for me and my use case, if I choose to use/return to Roon I feel it’d work well for me.

Thanks for the reply and suggestions. I did reboot my ROCK a couple of times to see if this improves the situation. I have no feedback on this yet though.

The sluggishness happens both with local and streamed files, as far as I can tell.

Same here ,sluggy/slow , especially after adding new tracks/albums to library.
Roon has never been snappy, but now it is slower than it was end of last year.
